Penfolds has unveiled the first champagne made by an Australian winery at an event held overnight at the Hotel Ritz, Paris. To mark Penfolds' 175th anniversary, the South Australian winery has collaborated with independent champagne house Thienot to create three champagnes from its 2012 vintage.
A collaboration between Champagne Thienot and Penfolds to mark the 175th anniversary of Penfolds.
This beautiful pale-gold 100% Chardonnay Champagne has a light, clear bouquet possessed of youthful fruit notes and floral accents. The structure of the wine is delicate and light; the palate is dry, ethereal and complex.
The immediate impression is of the mildness of the pure, airy, bright bouquet. A floral, fruity pastel tone then unfolds and quickly darkens into candied fruit, ripe hay and toasted notes, along with hints of licorice.
